Great stuff. Wants air. Primary fruit beginning to soften. Root beer. With lasagna tonight. Will try to hold the other couple bottles.

Oct 28th, 2025Something wrong with this. 2015. Oddly caramelized, treacly taste overwhelming any interesting fruit. Bad bottle.

Dec 12th, 2024Go big. Invest in the deep drop. Rich and glorious. Black cherry, red currant, plum, orange peel, sarsaparilla, anise, and dried herbs. Classic Brunello that deserves air.
Who comes to Brunello for restraint? Wears 14.5% well. Purchase without hesitation and drink for the next 10+.

Medium Ruby with berry fruit aromas, fragrant spice and floral notes. On the palate flavors of cherry, raspberry and licorice with notes of pepper spice, tangy mineral feel. Fine tannins, medium+ savory finish ending with a vanilla, tobacco and cacao. Nice!
